After the PS5 Pro launched, many players wanted a Cyberpunk 2077 update, but CD Projekt Red originally said it had no plans to use the console’s extra power. Now, in 2026, that has changed thanks to a major upgrade to the PS5 Pro’s PlayStation Spectral Super Resolution upscaling technology. This update arrives on April 8, and CDPR has shared details about the new features players will see when they revisit Night City.

The first big change is that Cyberpunk 2077 will now have 4K visuals and advanced ray tracing. Kuba Knapik, CDPR’s VP global art director, said the studio added BVH8–or 8-way Bounding Volume Hierarchy–to bring more advanced ray-traced lighting, shadows, and reflections to the game. This helps bring the team’s original artistic vision to life.

Players will have three graphics modes to pick from. Ray Tracing Pro turns on all ray tracing features. Performance mode focuses on the highest frame rate. Ray Tracing mode offers a balance between performance and quality, with some ray tracing effects and a target of 60 frames per second.
